Three years later defended his Ph.D. dissertation in chemical physics at the same institution. He continued to work at Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology as the Assistant Dean of the Faculty [...]

“Stress Relief” (SR) showed a reversal of stress-decreased locomotor activity in all stress models – distance walked increased almost twice, central zone crossings and time spent in it were 2–4 times greater than in the control group, and fast movement episodes and maximal speed increased by 50–200%. In addition, complete normalization of stress-induced elevation of [...]

This particular research focuses on the orientations of practitioners and clients who are involved to varying degrees in integrative medicine (including spiritual/energy healing, meditation, massage, chiropractic, acupuncture, and yoga). Based primarily on 53 ethnographic interviews in the United Kingdom and the United States (2016-2018), this presentation deals with how such practices are framed as scientific, [...]

Bio: Wagner Alegretti is an electronic engineer who has worked with electrical power generation, medical equipment and software development. He has been researching out-of-body experiences and developing means to detect life’s subtle energy and to create a bioenergy technology since the 1980’s. His most recent experiments use fMRI and other forms of nuclear magnetic resonance [...]

• Non-locality in space and time (with apparent room for retrocausation)

When I served on the SSE Council for several years, I volunteered to attempt to stimulate some scientific examination of the UFO topic, but I insisted that it should include the evaluation of “leaked” classified material, which was not acceptable to the Council.

Homeopathy is based on the principle that each of the manifold substances in the universe possesses a distinct energetic signature. It is a medicine of consciousness that relies primarily on the experience and meaning of the patient’s suffering rather than on the disease’s material manifestations. Homeopathy’s foundational principle, the ‘law of similars’, posits that energetic [...]

He is also licensed as a Professional Counselor in Colorado. He is currently an MA student in Philosophy. He has published three articles and a book chapter on his “Theory of Essence,” [...]

In the materialist view of the world, physics begets chemistry, which begets biology, from which emerges mind and consciousness.

The framework discussed here is necessarily an incomplete outline. In some cases, this is an acknowledgment that incomplete knowledge leads to some freedom being retained in the structure. For example, at the deepest level of explanation, this framework takes consciousness to be a fundamental component of reality, rather than an emergent or derived property of [...]
